Flowgorithm File Errors

Overview

In this tutorial, we will understand Flowgorithm File errors. Some common errors that occur during file handling using the flowchart tool are as follows:

File Not Found
File No Open
Invalid File Mode

File Not Found

File Not Found is the common error. This error occurs when the text file is not present in the same folder as the flowchart. Flowgorithm tool will look for the files in the program directory.

Place the input files in the same directory as in the flowchart. The filename should match with the names used in the File Open flowchart symbol.

File Not Open

This error occurs when the file is closed and an attempt to read or write occurs. We can use the File Close flowchart symbol to close the file handle. Any attempt to either read or write the closed file will lead to this error.

Invalid File Mode

Flowgorithm supports two file modes, Read mode and Write mode. This error occurs when the file is open with Read mode but an attempt to write to the file occurs in the flowchart application.
